I have been able to complete restores without errors now, and the restored
computer will boot but the profiles do not work. I can log on with the
administrator account but with an empty temporary profile, and I cannot log
on to other accounts.
Has anyone done a successful test restore with 8.1.0.0? I tested with both
Server 2016 and Server 2012 backups with the same results. Is this fixed
in 8.1.0.2 ?? (I need to try that next).
